PCCM Audio Summary - June 2025

The June 2025 issue of Pediatric Critical Care Medicine (PCCM) features original research articles investigating outcomes of hypoxemic respiratory failure in mechanically ventilated children, obstacles to pediatric organ donation, and early use of sodium bicarbonate in in-hospital cardiac arrest. Clinical investigation articles offer insights on augmented renal clearance in sepsis, in-hospital mortality in mechanically ventilated patients with severe dengue fever, and enteral nutrition for noninvasively ventilated patients in the pediatric intensive care unit. The PCCM trial compares acute kidney injury biomarkers in septic shock, and there are two research letters, one evaluating validation of the Phoenix Sepsis Score and one about diversity engagement of pediatric critical care medicine fellows. There is also an informative piece explaining the benefits of using area under the precision-recall curve and a compelling PCCM narrative.
